I think the whole image of the 40k universe has been going in a strange direction over the last few years.I fear for where it will end up, as I used to see a use for their kits (conversions, of course) but not their latest offerings.

I blame 3D modelling for these latest "meh" kits from GW. I think that the designers aren't able to visualize the vehicles properly when making them. Compared to what FW is putting out these look like rubbish.

I agree.

I used to see Forgeworld as a 'Rich Boys' toyshop.Great stuff but too pricey for me.

Now it is starting to look pretty good value when you compare their quality and price to what the other part of GW offer.

And I have to say that I was impressed. For someone who already knows how to paint, they don't bring anything new to the table, but for someone who's starting on the hobby it's really helpful. And the best part...it's free!
